Abstract:GLP-1 and GIP when combined can deliver complementary pharmacology. CT-868 (CT) and CT-859 are biased dual GLP-1 and GIP receptor modulators with no β-arrestin coupling on either receptor. Effect of both compounds on weight loss (WL) and glucose (GLUC) homeostasis were assessed in relevant rodent models. At non-GIPR engaging doses in ob/ob mice, 30 nmol/kg CT achieved greater WL vs 200 nmol/kg Liraglutide (LI), an unbiased GLP-1RA (19.8% vs 11.5%, p=0.002), indicating biased GLP-1 improves WL vs unbiased GLP-1… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
